Suppose you want to revert it back to 2000-09-20:
Go to the base dir of where the person changed the files.
Type :
cvs tag bad-revision
cvs tag -D '2000-09-20' last-good-revision
cvs up -j bad-revision -j last-good-revision
I haven't actually tried this before, so if it works type 'cvs com' and if not
type 'cvs up -A' to revert things back to their previous (crappy) state.
